Martial Law - Implications for South Korea and the U.S.-Korea Relationship

December 11, 2024 - Join us for a program that explores recent political events in South Korea, including a brief history of martial law in Korea, the events leading up to the Yoon Suk Yeol administration’s decision to invoke Martial Law, the National Assembly’s counter-action, and the long term consequences of the episode. How will this affect Korea’s domestic politics, the U.S.-ROK Alliance relationship, and inter-Korean relations? The expert panel includes Michelle Ye Hee Lee, Tokyo bureau chief for The Washington Post, covering Japan and the Koreas, and Aram Hur, the Kim Koo Chair in Korean Studies and Assistant Professor of Political Science at the Fletcher School, Tufts University, in conversation with policy director Jonathan Corrado and policy program officer Chelsie Alexandre.

Korea's conservative party forces have always colluded with high-ranking military officials to maintain a permanent wealth tax-cutting regime, and have always induced supporters by forcefully denouncing the progressive camp as North Korea's followers. This high-conflict Korean society is due to the widening wealth gap caused by Korea's rapid economic growth.
